Watching in Secret, Making Some Extra Cash!
A few years later--
A small fleet consisting of a Sixth-Tier Starship and five Fifth-Tier Starships slowly sailed away from the Great Qin Nebula.
This fleet was the private army of the Li Clan.
In the end, Li Ping'an chose to face it alone. With his current cultivation level at the Spirit Transformation Middle Stage, plus a Sixth-Tier starship and the Incense-Fire Puppet crafted from the remnant soul of his father, Li Shan...
With three Spirit Transformation stage warriors, as long as they are careful, they should be able to defeat the Mountain Piercer Clan without needing to wipe them out.
All we need to do is seize the Heaven Pillar Mountain Marrow!
When this small fleet left the Great Qin Nebula, it was already being secretly watched for a long time; these were the Imperial Guard of the Empire...
Formerly the Secret Guard and the Net, they are now the Empire's most secretive fangs!
"The Li Clan has been making frequent unusual moves in recent years, and now they've even gone so far as to quietly leave the Great Qin Nebula. Could they have defected?"
"Given Li Ping'an's status, he has no reason to..."
Commander of the Imperial Guards, Lu Zheng, muttered to himself, somewhat unsure of what to do. Deputy Commander Qin Yuan'an shook his head.
"No, Senior Li is the son of our clan's founding ancestor, Mingxi, and is connected to our clan by blood. He would never betray us."
"There must be some hidden story. They've probably found some fortuitous opportunity but don't want to reveal it, planning to keep it to themselves..."
What do you mean by Yuan An?
"Should we submit a memorial directly to the imperial court, report to the Qin Emperor, or inform the Qin Clan clan directly? After all, it involves a Spirit Transformation..."
"This matter requires a decision from those above."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yuan'an pondered for a moment, then took out a communication Law Treasure, spoke a few words, and then crushed the jade tablet:
"Let's go, I've already sent the message back to the clan."
"This matter should not be revealed to outsiders. There are many people in the court, each with their own ulterior motives. It would be unwise if someone were to use this as a pretext to falsely accuse Senior Li in the future."
"Let's follow them and see what the Li Clan is up to. As long as they don't do anything rebellious, we'll consider it surveillance."
"It's my duty; I just need to do my job."
Upon hearing the suggestion, Lu Zheng nodded slightly. Then, the two of them summoned a transoceanic shuttle and followed at a distance behind the Li Clan's fleet...
As we delve deeper...
Upon entering the Liu'an Star Domain, Lu Zheng frowned slightly and said:
"Why did you come all this way to the Liu'an Star Domain?"
"This place is even more barren than the Vast Spirit Star Domain. Could there really be some hidden treasure here? But the Li Clan hasn't cleaned up their mess..."
"Yuan'an, someone's here."
"There are seven Spirit Transformation auras, and they've been following the Li Clan's fleet since the Great Qin Nebula era. They really have a lot of little tails."
Qin Yuan'an also peered around, then condensed his Dao Law, forming a dark soul nail in his palm, and spat out a drop of Essence Blood to increase its power!
"Go!"
With a command, the dark red soul nail vanished into Void. The next instant, a Spirit Transformation aura erupted, instantly annihilating a person!
"If even one dies, they're not Human Race!"
"I'll use Secret Method to buy myself some time."
Lu Zheng remained silent, instead stepping directly in front of Qin Yuan'an. He raised both palms, and instantly the Great Dao of Blood and Soul swept across the area...
Within the boundless sea of blood, five colossal beast phantoms slowly coalesced!
The five sacred beasts of blood spirit— Vermilion Bird, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Qilin— immediately surrounded Lu Zheng, each possessing an imposing aura...
He instantly suppressed five Nascent Spirit Transformation. As the commander of the Imperial Guard of the Great Qin Empire, his cultivation and strength were all top-notch!
Spirit Transformation Middle Stage cultivation level, but his combat power is comparable to that of Spirit Transformation Peak.
With countless treasures at his disposal, dealing with a few Early Spirit Transformation was a piece of cake; you'd need considerable strength to survive...
How could he possibly become the commander of the Imperial Guard!
Behind him, Qin Yuan'an revealed a wicked smile, spitting out a mouthful of Essence Blood. Nine demonic heads immediately emerged from the nine Ghost King Flag before him...
The evil spirits howled incessantly and instantly charged towards the group of Spirit Transformation cultivators.
These ghosts are no ordinary beings; they are fierce spirits separated from the Heaven Burial Banner by the Heaven Burial Boy under Ancestor Qin. In their previous lives, all nine ghosts were Spirit Transformation cultivators!
Qin Yuan'an expended a great deal of effort to command the Nine Ghosts in a short time. With his Early Spirit Transformation cultivation, he was even able to kill Spirit Transformation Late Stage and even Spirit Transformation Peak cultivators. This was the foundation of a great clan.
The difference between cultivators from powerful clans and ordinary cultivators is greater than the difference between a human and a dog!
For these commanders of the Imperial Guard, almost every one of them possessed the ability to fight beyond their rank, and each was an elite...
In the blink of an eye.
The seven Nascent Spirit Transformation stage tails were completely annihilated...
Qin Yuan'an happily devoured the Primordial Spirit, while Lu Zheng took stock of the finances. That's more like it; they came out to earn some extra money on the side!
This is what life is all about; it's like giving away money.
"The soul is awful; it's clearly from a small clan or a rootless drifter. It lacks any flavor, and its foundation is utterly pathetic."
"These ants are incredibly lucky; I have no idea how they managed to reach the Spirit Transformation Realm."
